Losi LOSA0887 Getting Started - Manual (Page 2)

Start your engine
Attach the glow plug ignitor (fig. 6A). Be sure that the “C” size battery is fresh and has power. Put the standard hex of
the starter shaft into the Spin-Start (fig.6B). Slide your hand under the strap of the starter so that your index finger is on
the switch at the bottom. Place the machined end of the starter shaft into the matching hex socket in the back-up.
Caution: If the engine does not turn over, it is probably flooded or the battery in the starter needs to be recharged. Use
a glow plug wrench to loosen the glow plug at least two turns and try again. Raw fuel should come out around the plug.
Tighten the plug and resume starting procedure.
Follow the engine break-in procedure before attempting any racing or high performance operation. Use caution when
adding fuel while the engine is running. Do not over fill or spill fuel outside the tank.
Stopping the engine
To stop the engine, use a rag to cover the exhaust pipe exit(fig. 7A) being EXTREMELY careful not to burn your hand as
this will be hot, or use the handle of a screwdriver (fig. 7B) against the engine flywheel.
